> Words are tools of communication. They have meanings. Those meanings shift over time, and according to context. This is exactly correct. Not everyone's experiences are the same, leading different people to wrap a situation or a statement in different context. When some people hear BLM they wrap it in the context of the ideology of the founders, or in the riots they see on television, or in the intense anti-[insert group] hate on social media. Those people aren't racists, and they would happily work with you to combat corruption in our politics and policing. They want the world to be better, they simply disagree with how the movement is organized. > Unreasonable people insist that they are being victim-blamed. People who said 'All lives matter' early on were labeled racists and attacked mercilessly on social media and television. I don't believe these people are all unreasonable.
